No cover on it and with just the lift, tires and wheels and cold air intake it never got over 13mpg anywhere.

I also have a Black Bear 91+ octane tune, 4.10 gears, cold air intake, and exhaust. 35-60mph its 17-20mpg. 60-80mph its 13-15mpg.

I have the 4" lift and people flash me all the time thinking I have my brights on.

It rides great, I have no complaints at all. That's with trail grapplers too, and if it has hit the bump stops I haven't noticed it. Its very smooth, I'd compare it to stock other than the mud tires making it not quite as smooth.

Fabtech 4" lift angles...

I just got the 4" budget kit for like $600. Ill post some as soon as i get a chance.

This is mine with the Fabtech 4" lift, I did a lot of research and I couldn't be happier with the Fabtech 4".

It is a true suspension lift, I have it on my truck and it rides great and keeps factory angles by dropping the diff. I have no idea why everyone is calling it a glorified leveling kit. It was a complex install and that's why i paid a shop to do it, its not a leveling kit by any means.

Thats not true, I have the 4" fabtech and it rides great and it drops the diff to keep factory angles. The fabtech 4" is a great lift.

I had the 4.10's installed on mine by the same guy as CAtaylor, I have motive gear in the rear and yukon gear in the front. I don't have any whine at all and the shifting is back to normal. My 295/60/20's threw off the shifting bad. I also cruise at 2300rpm at 75mph which is weird since you have 4.56 and I have 4.10 gears. I think my gas mileage came up around 2 mpg but to be honest i cant keep my foot out of it with my new cherry bomb vortex exhaust and air raid cold air intake, it sounds great. I'm still trying to get this black bear tune situation figured out, it doesnt seem to be working right. Hopefully it helps quite a bit once its all done.

I'm going with the custom gear install, converting it to the previous style. I'm selling my 3.42's and rear locker if anyone is interested, only 5,000 miles on them. (318)655-4725

I ordered my gears from east coast gear, they should be here tomorrow and I have an appointment with triple N on Monday to get them installed. I only went with 4.10's since I drive a lot on the highway.

Thanks, BMF only makes these wheels in 0 offset. It took some trimming but I think its the perfect offset, not too far in and not too far out.

Fabtech 4" lift, 295/60/20 trail grapplers 20" BMF R.E.P.R's and debadged. I posted pics of the trimming needed in the fender well. Looks a lot better in person. Gears, black bear tune and corsa exhaust next.
